Puff or Hov : Who is more iconic ?

[Cladyclad]

It absolutely is not

Jennifer was still on the rise when Puff had her. Selena was a star turning role but she wasn’t Leonardo DiCaprio Titanic big or no shyt like that.

You really think nikkax knew who the girl dancing with Puffy in Been Around The World was? lol

If anything JLo was getting her groove when she released her first album and ultimately became white hot after she dumped him

On top of that Bad Boy was a more profitable product then Rocafella could hope to dream of at that point

Once Jennifer Lopez wore that dress she was the biggest thing in the world. Her album didn’t even drop yet

This is not true. Her album came out the year before. Just checked

I misspoke i didn’t finish my thought. I was basically saying that dress blew her up before Her follow up. She was to the moon by the time that 2nd album dropped

 

[Ziggiy]

Hov made The Blueprint

Diddy did not

 

[maxamusa]

money making mt Vernon

Both of them were still on the rise truthfully speaking. Prior to 1997, Puff was just that dude we saw in videos and a producer. Summer 1997, we saw him become a superstar to the magnitude of Elton John consulting him on making a tribute song for Princess Diana. Puff was one of the biggest artists in music and people definitely knew who Jennifer Lopez was by then.

No

Puffy was a huge star at that point and Jennifer wasn’t quite there yet. No Way Out Tour was the biggest thing going in rap sans No Limit and Bad Boy was having a historic year

Jennifer was on her way but it wasn’t lit like that yet by any means

 

[Amo Husserl]

gay rumors

Puff is predicated on his artist dying

These two alone make Puff the more iconic personality in hip-hop, he dropped less than half of Jay's catalog but got henchmen that did OD numbers with fewer releases than him:

Puff might be responsible for Jay's career through Big.

Puff, and this is coming from someone who thinks Jay is the GOAT

That was my point with the Jennifer Lopez example. She was definitely known and was becoming Hollywood it girl because she was coming off of Selena and Anaconda. People definitely knew who she was. The same way people knew who Beyonce was in 2003, but she wasn't exactly the Beyonce of today.

 

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

The executive producer whose all up in the videos....dancing

 

[Big Boss]

iconic basically means "widely known and acknowledged especially for distinctive excellence"

It'll always be subjective.

The man popularized the term Black Excellence for Christ sake lol

This.

Which is why it could go either way. There's not a person who knows Puff and what he does that doesn't also know Jay and what he does and vice versa.
